The Youth Impact Foundation – East Melbourne VIC

General Manager of In Person Delivery

The Youth Impact Foundation | East Melbourne with work from home options
Full time | $90,000 to $120,000 plus super

Lead the delivery behind 200,000+ young people every year

The Youth Impact Foundation (TYIF) runs evidence-based, preventative wellbeing programs for young people across Australia, reaching more than 200,000 young people every year. Our goal is to reach one million young people by 2030, and we’re on track to get there.

We’re looking for a General Manager of In Person Delivery to lead how we get there, refining the systems and planning that let our programs grow.

You’ll lead the planning and delivery of every in person program TYIF runs in Australia: in school programs, workshops, keynotes, conferences and camps. Your five direct reports cover camps, venues and our NSW and VIC facilitator teams. Some run delivery themselves, and others lead the teams that do. You’ll work closely with the Chief of Staff to set the direction for delivery, then make it happen.

This is not a role for someone who needs to be at every event. It’s for a leader who builds the systems, team and culture that let great delivery happen without them in the room.

About Us

Reducing duplication. Amplifying impact.

We grow our impact by bringing youth mental health charities together. Consolidating means less duplication, lower costs and more young people accessing high quality, life changing programs.
